formula help
ok, I'e been looking all over for a way to do this formula, and I haven't
been successful yet. Hopefully someone can help me out, or at least point me in the right direction. The form I am creating is for use by various companies, it is for blank printout, as well as entering data into it to receive calculations. D6 is sq ft, D7 is Height, and D8 is a drop down list that 1-4 can be selected in. The formula resides in cell H7 the formula is pretty simple, in itself- D6*D7/X . Where it gts interesting is the following add-ons I'd like to put in it: Roundup to the nearest integer, and if there is no data, than H7 remains blank, also, the value of X depends upon what is selected in D8, basically if d8=1,x=100 if d8=2 than x=50, if d8=3 than x=40, and if D8=4 than x=50. If anyone can help out, I'd really appreciate it, since I have another similiar formula that would need to follow the same requirements above. Thanks for any help |

Wow! Thanks! I did change the H7 reference to D7(kept telling me circular
reference), but great formula. It helps me a lot to understand how it is constructed. The one question I have, what is the final ",1" in the formula for?

This portion is a simple lookup. Looks up 1,2,3,4 and respectively returns
100,50,40,50. LOOKUP(D8,{1,2,3,4;100,50,40,50}) The final One is part of the Round function which say to round to 1 decimal point. "-Bryan" wrote: Wow! Thanks!

Again, thank you very much. It's been almost exactly ten years since I've had to work in excel, and every bit of info helps me get back into the swing of things.
